In a world that celebrates quick successes, Fuel Your Hustle is a tribute to the consistent effort behind greatness.

Sahibjeet Singh Sawhney, marketing, Zomato, said, 'This campaign is for a new generation of doers, a reminder that even the stars they look up to started small, stumbled, and kept going. It's a cheer for the millions of Indians building something, following dreams, caring for loved ones and for themselves, even when it's hard and no one's clapping.'
'We're rooting for those chasing what they care deeply about and showing up for it consistently. Food is just their fuel and we're glad to be a small part of their journey,' he added.
Zomato has launched a 360-degree campaign across digital, outdoor, social media platforms, and print media.
Shah Rukh Khan said, 'I've only ever truly believed in hard work. Long hours, late nights, they don't feel heavy when it's for something you love. It's not about doing it because you have to, it's because you want to give it your all.'
Mary Kom said, 'Most days weren't about winning. They were about showing up — for training, for my family, for myself. It wasn't always perfect, but I knew what I was fighting for. I didn't start out strong, I became strong, slowly, one day at a time.'
A R Rahman said, 'Every day is day one. Even now, I feel like I'm just getting started. It's a joy to be part of an inspiring narrative—alongside people I genuinely admire and cheer for.'
Jasprit Bumrah said, 'Nothing comes easy. You've got to put in the work — every single day. Every session, every rep, even when no one's watching. Hustle is part of every journey, but no one sees it. Zomato is showing the world a sneak peak of that grind.'

These Indians own homes in Dubai's Burj Khalifa, here's how much it costs to live in the world's tallest building
These Indians own homes in Dubai's Burj Khalifa, here's how much it costs to live in the world's tallest building When people think of Dubai, the first image that often comes to mind is the towering Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world. This architectural wonder is not only a tourist hotspot, but it is also home to some of the most luxurious residences on the planet. What might surprise many is that several Indians own apartments inside this iconic skyscraper. From successful entrepreneurs to well-known film stars, a few prominent Indian names have secured their own slice of the Dubai skyline. Among them are businessman George V Nereamparambil, renowned actor Mohanlal, and Shilpa Shetty. Shilpa Shetty's sky-high gift Shilpa Shetty, known for her roles in Hindi cinema and her presence in the wellness industry, owns a stunning apartment in the Burj Khalifa. But this is not just any real estate purchase, it was a gift from her husband, Raj Kundra on their wedding anniversary. Her luxury residence is located on the 19th floor of the skyscraper and is estimated to be worth over Rs. 50 crore (more than USD USD 6 million USD). The apartment offers breathtaking views of Dubai's skyline and is part of one of the most prestigious addresses in the world. Living in the Burj Khalifa isn't just about luxury, it is a lifestyle that comes with world-class amenities, 24/7 concierge services, and the pride of calling the tallest building on Earth your home. Mohanlal's high-rise haven Veteran South Indian actor Mohanlal owns a chic one-bedroom apartment on the 29th floor of the Burj Khalifa. Spread across 940 square feet, the apartment offers sweeping views of the Dubai Fountain and the glittering cityscape below. The property is estimated to be worth around Rs. 3.5 crore and is registered under his wife, Suchitra Mohanlal. George V Nereaparambil: The 'King of Burj Khalifa' Kerala-based businessman George V Nereaparambil has taken his love for Dubai real estate to a whole new level. He owns a staggering 22 apartments in the Burj Khalifa, making him the largest private owner within the tower. His massive presence in the building has earned him the unofficial title of 'The King of Burj Khalifa.' How much does it cost to live in Burj Khalifa? Owning a piece of the Burj Khalifa comes at a premium cost. A modest 1-bedroom apartment in the tower starts at around Rs. 7 crore. If you're eyeing something bigger, a 2-bedroom unit will cost a minimum of Rs. 10.8 crore, with prices soaring to Rs. 20–22 crore or even higher depending on the size, floor level, and view. Some ultra-luxurious properties in the tower command even steeper prices.

‘Civilised way mai vibe': Japanese crowd's calm reaction to Daler Mehndi's ‘Tunak Tunak Tun' goes viral
A video showing a group of Japanese people calmly grooving to a high-energy Punjabi song has sparked a wave of reactions online. The clip, filmed at the World Expo in Osaka, features a stage performance of Daler Mehndi's iconic Tunak Tunak Tun song, complete with dancers and a Punjabi singer leading the show. What stole the show was the audience's reaction to the song. Instead of the usual jumping and dancing one might expect, the Japanese crowd vibed to the beat in a measured, synchronised manner, clapping with enthusiasm. The contrast was so striking that one X user, @Oye_Jahazi, posted the video with the caption: 'Japanese log Punjabi songs pe bhi itne civilised way me vibe karte hain (Even when Japanese people vibe to Punjabi songs, they do it in such a civilised way).' Japanese log Punjabi songs pe bhi itne civilised way me vibe karte hain 😭 — Jahazi (@Oye_Jahazi) July 18, 2025 The post quickly gained traction, with thousands of views and plenty of comments. 'Most civilized country for a reason,' one user remarked. Another quipped, 'Bechare bachpan se shant log hai (They've been calm since childhood). One of the nicest human breed on earth.' Meanwhile, a Japanese travel vlogger recently stirred discussion with a video reflecting on his interactions with Indians he met during his travels abroad. Unlike the viral Osaka clip, this one carried a more reflective, and somewhat critical, tone. The vlogger questioned a recurring pattern he noticed: 'I met so many amazing Indians while travelling abroad. But almost all of them said the same thing.' He said many Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) told him they left because they felt 'the system holds back those who want to do something big in India.' Another comment that kept coming up, he added, was: 'India is too hard to live in.' His video has since led to debate online, with viewers reacting to what some see as a harsh reality and others defending their homeland against generalisation.
